Ideas to move my business offline

5 replies
Hello Fellow warriors, four months ago I found and article here start selling whiteboards videos on Fiverr, since it has been good it takes too much work for just earn $5, The best month I have had I did $300.

So I decide to try to go offline with my product (whiteboard videos) and try to increase my earnings, but I don´t know how or where to start.

I believe that you guys could help me out with ideas about where to start, or maybe indicate a good source of offline info to look over like a blog, WSO or e-couse to jump it. Thanks for your help in advance

    How many videos did you make? Enough that you can notice patterns? What are the patterns, what type of businesses were your videos for/about? That should help tell you what kind of businesses you should target, I'd say.

    I can think of tons of businesses that can use that kind of video. And, if the script is good, you'll have success.

    Just to start you off: mortgage companies, plumbers, window replacement companies, party places, catering services.

      The world according to me. As much as everyone around here knows fiverr, it really is not a household brand. If you type "Whiteboard video" in a search engine, its not like they have a listing.

      I would build a website for your whiteboard video business. I would post many examples of your work. Some finished but a great majority of it should be trade related. IE dentist, or doctors or contractors or plumbers and some other off the wall topics dog groomers, dog walkers.

      You would follow a script for say a dentist don't you hate getting your teeth pulled, that guy digging and scraping...well if you came into and use this "Insert your dental office name here" 2 times a year to get your teeth cleaned this could have all been avoided. blah blah blah

      Now the site is up, you can start getting some traffic to it through what ever means.

      The offline side... I am assuming you are an artist... Design a Nice looking rackcard, with some nice Art work on the front, what white board video is, and the back some more art and contact info website and your prices. You can get these done at gotprints.com a 1000 full color glossy 2 sided for like $100.00 with shipping

      OK now you want to grab a tablet with samples loaded on to it, your cards and start selling. If you look over the past few weeks there have been many post here in offline with some great cold call scripts. The added beauty of this is you are confronted with a "gate keeper" you can ask if they have "1 Minute" show them the matching demo video for their line of work. hand them a rackcard. I am going to bet that because your product, is cute, funny, fun etc that the rackcard will get into the hands of the decision maker, with a raving review.

      And may I make a suggestion? I have never seen this but do you do blackboard videos? Im not talking about slate and chalk.I mean those lit up blackboards with the florescent pens. If it can be done, you might want to high-lite that on your site, making your service different than the rest.

      By the way, i did a quick bit of research and found that a 1 minute whiteboard video sells for $395

      Hope that Helps!

    You'd probably also have to invest a lot into educating business owners on WHY they need a whiteboard video. Fiverr is easy because business purchasers there are fairly tech savvy and are probably reselling them to their clients. Dealing directly with a business owner is a whole different game.

      Why not position yourself as a Video Sales Letter Creation Expert...

      I actually just found out - couple of hours ago that they are called White Board Videos. Never heard that before.

      I was on fiver to search for someone who could make a video presentation for me and luckily I saw that.

      The highest converting, best-selling products on ClickBank now use that format. Contact as many product owners as you can, on ClickBank, who don't have that yet.

      TruthAboutAbs.com, TheTaoOfBadass.com, VenusFactor.com - all chart-toppers on ClickBank use exactly that.

      Infact, everyone who owns a traditional type, long-form salesletter is your potential customer.

      All of us who will create salesletters in the future too.

      Now, you have a MASSIVE untapped market!

      Regards.

    Businesses don't want whiteboards. They don't want websites. They don't want mobile.


    they want benefits and results of those tools.

    Go back to all the whiteboard customers on fiver and get testimonials on what results they got. Don't sell whiteboards. Sell the benefits of whiteboards. Use testimonials (social proof) to show prospects results.
